A few minor (but rather odd) questions re. F Renault and F BMW

These things have cropped up on another forum, please could you guys help.

1) Do F Renault cars have pit lane speed limiters? Surely they do although they don't normally make pitstops.
1A) Do F BMW cars have pit lane speed limiters? Surely they do although they don't normally make pitstops.
2) Do F BMW cars have ignition cuts that allow upshifts with the foot fully floored? I wouldn't be surprised if they do, but I'm not sure.

Yup, these questions are to do with LFS patch X30

I think that FBMW's lack pit lane speed limiters, though I'm not certain.

REALIST has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!

Neither have pit lane speed limiters.

FBMW do NOT have ignition cuts on upshift. Requires a very slight lift of the throttle.

Renault has a fully automatic cutout on up shift.

I stand corrected. Surprised but corrected.

My understanding is that flat shift will be introduced this season.
